Abstract: Examples describe an egress port manager that uses an adaptive jitter selector to apply a jitter threshold level for a buffer, wherein the jitter threshold level is to indicate when egress of a packet segment from the buffer is allowed, wherein a packet segment comprises a packet header and wherein the jitter threshold level is adaptive based on a switch fabric load. In some examples, the jitter threshold level is to indicate a number of segments for the buffer's head of line (HOL) packet that are to be in the buffer or indicate a timer that starts at a time of issuance of a first read request for a first segment of the packet in the buffer. In some examples, the jitter threshold level is not more than a maximum transmission unit (MTU) size associated with the buffer.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to assist in different forms of communication using messaging platforms such as email, text messaging, etc. For instance, an improved massaging platform is provided for creating better human to human communication and organization of messaging, as well as messaging involving machines. Human to human include, for example, emails, text messages, social media messages, or other forms of electronic communication from another human, which usually requires some sort of response back from another user. Aspects are provided herein for highlighting and distinguishing such forms of communication, and to provide interfaces and tools to organize and simplify such interactions.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for defining a plurality of users within a social network, wherein a social currency amount is associated with each of the plurality of users of the social network. A social network bank is established within the social network, wherein the social network bank is configured to effectuate one or more social currency transfers between the plurality of users of the social network.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for defining a first user within a social network, wherein a first social currency amount is associated with the first user of the social network. A second user is defined within the social network, wherein a second social currency amount is associated with the second user of the social network. A portion of the second social currency amount is transferred to a first account associated with the first social currency amount. In response to transferring the portion of the second social currency amount, the second user of the social network is allowed to advertise on a portion of the social network controlled by the first user of the social network.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for defining a first user within a social network, wherein a first social currency amount is associated with the first user of the social network. A first virtual paywall is associated with the first user of the social network. A second user is defined within the social network, wherein a second social currency amount is associated with the second user of the social network. A portion of the second social currency amount is transferred, via the first virtual paywall, to a first account associated with the first social currency amount. In response to transferring the portion of the second social currency amount, a commercial transaction is effectuated between the first user of the social network and the second user of the social network.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for defining a plurality of users within a social network, wherein a social currency amount is associated with each of the plurality of users of the social network. A social network bank is established within the social network, wherein the social network bank is configured to effectuate one or more social currency exchanges between at least one user of the plurality of users of the social network and a commercial banking institution.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computing system for defining a first user within a social network. A first social currency score is associated with the first user of the social network. A reaction is received concerning the first user of the social network from a second user of the social network. The first social currency score of the first user of the social network is adjusted based, at least in part, upon the reaction from the second user of the social network, thus defining a revised social currency score for the first user of the social network.

Abstract: An exercise treadmill is disclosed which includes various features to enhance user operation and to reduce maintenance costs. These features include handlebars with an upwardly curved center section and outwardly flared side portions along with pivoting rear legs for the treadmill frame. The control panel features include snap-in user trays and an overlay covering the numerical key pad along with an auxiliary control panel having a subset of user controls that are larger and more easy to use than the same controls on the main control panel. Maintenance enhancing features include the provision for access panels in the treadmill housing and a belt lubrication system that uses a priming pulse to clear the wax spraying nozzle along with using treadmill operating criteria for scheduling and operating the lubrication system. For injection molded parts such as the control panel, structural strength is enhanced by utilizing gas-assist injection molding to form structural ribs.

Abstract: Spiral shaped fibers were utilized to prepare completely novel metal oxide nanotubes comprising solely metal oxides. The metal oxide nanotubes comprise solely a hollow cylinder shaped metal oxide which may contain hydroxyl groups constituting a double helix and having hole diameter distributions containing two peak hole diameters ranging from 1 to 2 nm and from 3 to 7 nm. The tubes may be obtained by forming spiral shaped fibers from a solution of compound 1 and compound 2 and using the fibers as a template for making the nanotubes. The hydrogen adsorption and storage capacity of the metal oxide nanotubes are extremely good.
